Since Josh is going to treat all of them Zen didn"t hold back his appet.i.te and ordered a lot of food on the table just for him . Since the moment that Anna met Josh and Zen, Anna knows two things about Zen, he"s a miser and he"s a foodie, as for Josh, based on what happened earlier Anna thinks that Josh hate losing the most and he"s very compet.i.tive in every challenge that"s thrown into him .
"Anna where did you learn how to shoot a ball?" Nathalia asked and the s.h.i.+ne in her eyes filled with curiosity .
"I told you before that was the first time I shoot a ball . n.o.body thought me anything . " Even in her past life Anna never played basketball or even shoot a ball in the ring .
When she was playing earlier she there was a flash of vague memory in her mind . A tall man playing basketball and there"s a toddler clapping every time the tall man shoot the ball into the ring . The toddler was happy every time she sees that man play .
The vague memory feels nostalgic for her, she felt happy for a moment . Unfortunately, she can"t clearly see who"s that tall man is . She wonders if that baby was her, if so then she could ask her mother to know about that tall man .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt"It"s true . She never played basketball before," Aaron said . Aaron is also to know that his sister knows how to play . As far as he knows none of his family members are good at it or even knows how to play it .
He thinks really hard to the point that he remembers that there"s one family member that he wasn"t sure if that person knows how to play or not, but then again he doesn"t wanna mention that person and he doesn"t really care . That person abandoned them without any notice at all . Remembering that person only spoiled Aaron"s appet.i.te and he just stared at his food .
"Hey, are you gonna eat that?" Aaron looked at the person in front of him who"s plate is full .
"Are you not satisfied with that?" He said pointing at Zen"s plate .
Zen looked at his full plate and said, "Nope! It"s not enough to fill me up!" Aaron just can"t believe this guy, "Does he have a bottomless pit in his stomach?"
"You can have mine if you want . I"m already full . " When Aaron said that Zen didn"t hesitate to take his food and eat it happily . He suddenly wonders, how come Zen is skinny and fit when he eats like that? He eats like a pig right now .
"You"re full already?" Anna asked her brother .
"Yeah . "
"But you just ate a little . " She said in a concerned voice . Earlier, Aaron was also suggesting Josh and Anna to stop playing because he"s hungry but now he"s only eating a little . He should eat more that"s what Anna thinks .
"Don"t worry about him too much Anna! He"s a big boy! He can take care of himself . " Nathalia said while glaring at Aaron . When Aaron saw Nathalia"s glare he wants to ask her why is she glaring at him, as far as he knows he did nothing wrong for her to glare at him like that .
"How dare him to make Anna worry! Tsk! I should"ve forced Anna not to bring her pain-in-the-a.s.s brother here with us!" For the first time ever in such a long time, Nathalia felt a true friend in Anna"s presence, even though they just met recently and don"t know much about each other she felt that she can be true to herself once again with Anna being around .
Sure she has Josh and Zen around her but that was not enough for her she wants someone who can understand her deeply and she felt that Anna is that someone who can understand her after all, they experience the same thing "betrayal" from someone they thought their true friend . Nathalia just hoped that Anna would open up to her sooner and trust her .
Since Aaron doesn"t want to argue with Nathalia right now he changed the topic, "So . . . are you guys relatives or something?" In honesty, Aaron has been really curious about what kind of relations.h.i.+p does the Nathalia and these two have .
Nathalia doesn"t really want to answer Aaron question unless Anna asks for it she will happily oblige to answer and for Josh who"s still depressed of losing earlier doesn"t wanna talk, it"s nothing new really he"s always been the silent one that why it"s no surprise if he doesn"t wanna answer Aaron"s question .
Seeing that neither that two of them are answering Aaron"s question Zen gulped down the food in his mouth and said, "Nathalia and I have known each other since we were babies and as we grow up and entered elementary school we met Josh . Overall we"re childhood friends . " After he said all of that he resumes satisfying his stomach .
"Just the three of you?" Anna asked .
"Not exactly though . We have this another frie-" Zen stopped talking when he realized what he"s about to say . Mentioning someone from their past is a taboo topic especially for Nathalia, out of the three of them she"s the one who got hurt the most .
Zen secretly looked at his both sides, he saw Josh just silently eating his food as if he didn"t hear anything and he also saw that Nathalia stopped eating her food and her eyes showed sadness and anger . Zen really wanna punch himself now sometime he just can"t stop talking when he"s enjoying his food too much .
Aaron and Anna notice the change in the three of them, they noticed that when Zen stopped talking in the middle of his sentence Josh has this dangerous aura that as if he wants to kill someone and Nathalia, her cheerful aura change into coldness . Looks like the other friend that Zen almost mentioned is a taboo for the three of them, they don"t want to talk about and they also don"t want to hear about it .
Since Anna and Aaron felt that it"s not good to talk about it they changed the topic, they both don"t want the atmosphere to be so awkward .
"Anyways, what are we gonna do next after this?" Hearing this Nathalia turned back to her cheerful aura .
"Oh, I know! Let"s go skating! There"s a skating rink upstairs!"
